Do you know why?
Hot summer days
Keep us alive
Bring peace of mind
Please don’t make me feel guilty
There was nothing I could do
Just making the most of the weather
Put yourself in their shoes
I can’t be late for my girlfriend
She means everything to me
Their voices so loud and aggressive
Such a brutal symphony
Do you know why?
Hot summer days
Keep us alive
Bring peace of mind
She sits cross legged by the fountain
She looks beautiful today
And so unaware of the violence
On this public holiday
I think at first I should tell her
Then decide to let it go
We only have a few hours
To enjoy this day alone
Chorus
Why are we running away?….rpt
